horndude is on a distinguished road

Default

from a terminal as root type "lspci" and see if its listed first

type "dmesg | more" also and see if its detected at boot up

if its being seen as a valid device we can go from there

also as posted in other thread, check redhats site to see if that modem is linux compatible too
